Q. UCSF Policy on Dismissal

Based on the Program Director’s discretion as approved by the Chair, a Trainee may be dismissed from a GME training program for academic deficiencies. This action is appealable to the Dean of the School of Medicine after review by the departmental Clinical Competence Committee. Reasons for dismissal may include but are not limited to the following:

  • A failure to achieve or maintain programmatic standards in the GME training program;
  • a serious or repeated act or omission compromising acceptable standards of patient care, including but not limited to an act which constitutes a medical disciplinary cause or reason;
  • unprofessional, unethical or other behavior that is otherwise considered unacceptable by the GME training program;
  • a material omission or falsification of a GME training program application, medical record, or University or medical document, including billing records. Any allegation regarding failure to comply with UCSF’s billing rules shall be forwarded to UCSF’s Corporate Compliance Officer and/or the Office of General Counsel for resolution in accordance with UCSF’s Corporate Compliance Program.
